Applies to 2003-06 models

Important: Frontal crash test ratings should be compared only among vehicles of similar weight.

The Infiniti G35 was introduced in the 2003 model year.

Injury measures

Measures taken from the neck, chest, and both legs indicate low risk of injuries to these body regions in a crash of this severity. A high head acceleration occurred when the dummy's head hit the steering wheel through the airbag, indicating that head injuries would be possible.

Restraints and dummy kinematics

Dummy movement was well controlled. Both the side chest airbag and side curtain head airbag deployed. During rebound, the dummy's head brushed the side curtain airbag and its fabric cover. The dummy continued to rebound into the seat without its head coming close to any stiff structure that could cause injury.

The Infiniti G35 was introduced in the 2003 model year. Beginning with later 2005 models and fully phased in with the 2006 models, design changes were made to the door trim panels, armrests, and side airbags to improve occupant protection in side impact crashes.

Injury measures

Driver — Measures taken from the dummy indicate that a left femur fracture would be likely in a crash of this severity. A fracture of the pelvis would also be possible. The risk of significant injuries to other body regions is low.

Passenger — Measures taken from the dummy indicate a low risk of any significant injuries in a crash of this severity.

Head protection

Driver — The dummy's head was protected from being hit by any hard structures, including the intruding barrier, by a side curtain airbag that deployed from the roof.
